I love docs 1.2 rom. killer23d put it up a while back and i use that one whenever im not satisfied with a new rom. i think i might have found a rom that i like but it doesnt have that awesome keyboard that i am used too. does anyone know how i can take the keyboard off of the 1.2 rom and put it onto any other rom? PLEASE?! thanks!
Does anyone know how i can put the white multi touch keyboard on my sgs and wherebi can download it? Idk how to install via cwm. I tried using
that to install something else and it pretty much messed up my phone and i had to reinstall the rom. Thanks.
Might get some more bites if you listed the name of the keyboard you want.
Grrrr... I forgot which one it was! It was all white. And i rhink it was titled as an android keyboard. Maybe a droid x ordroid 2 keyboard?

Ooops, hit thanks, instead of quote.
By the way, search for 2.3 gingerbread keyboard on these forums. This is very similar to android 2.1 keyboard, only better. I too am a fan of 2.1 android keyboard, well, until i came across the 2.3 keyboard.
I want to use it, but i serously hate HATE that it doesnt vibrate on keypress

I think a small compromise is needed. Try using "better keyboard" to see if that can provide u some temp relief while some dev tries to figure this out.

I want to get the HTC keyboard on my NS as I am used to it on my Desire HD, I have tried the same file and method as you do with the Nexus One but I always get a force close error when I try to select the new input method.
Am I doing something wrong or do i need a different file to install
http://postkreative.eu/HTC_IME_hi22.apk
i prefer stock keyboard over HTC_IME.. it doesnt have multi touch :\
either that or. http://www.appbrain.com/app/smart-keyboard-pro/net.cdeguet.smartkeyboardpro

Smart keyboard has a HTC_IME skin that looks like HTC but includes multitouch capabilities. Try it out.

Copied from the app description:

I am using the HTC keyboard on my Nexus S and it works great but every now and again the text text that appears above the keys that shows you what you are typing does not come up so I have to kill the keyboard.
Anyone know a fix for this?

Possibly go find a version for it thats compatible for 2.3.X.
The link I sent you before is 2.2.X but it does work. Most people have moved onto better keyboards because HTC IME is missing the multitouch keyboard feature.
@Borky: Your post doesn't help. The OP already has the keyboard and your keyboard thread hasn't been updated since October. So I doubt its the newer version.
HTC Sense is also not running 2.3.X (yet!) so unless you can port the keyboard from the sense 2.3 leak.... no luck

Like I said, use Smart Keyboard Pro and the HTC skin over it. It's practically the same thing but more accurate and supports multi-touch!
May I also ask where I can find the HTC handwriting input for Nexus S as well?
can anyone post any working htc-ime keyboard because everything i have found force closes for me..using ics

same here, it works fine.
but it sucks compared to Android GB Keyboard
i used to believe Swype was great until i started using AGB keyboard, now i can't live without it.
it's simply that good
AGB keyboard = stock keyboard on 2.3.3 / 2.3.4
i actually find swype to be cumbersome and slow now

Granted I'm a first time Android user, but I couldn't get used to the keyboard on my NS4G. I'm also coming from a Pre with a physical keyboard that I could type one handed without looking.
I admit the Swype keyboard looks like garbage compared to the new keyboard, but in terms of usability, I can punch out a text using Swype waayyy faster than on the new keyboard.
okay, yes, if you want to type one handed in the mist of a rush hour in a public transit, then Swype is a better choice
but for multi-touch fast 2 hands typing, the stock android keyboard is magnificent specially when it comes to language switching
it gives you instantaneous language swap, so in the same message you can mix and match languages without the looooooong steps required on swype.
Confirming also that swype is working fine on NS4G. I had to log into the swype beta website, 'remove' the old device they had listed for my account, re download the inataller, let it do its thing, e.g. install, license...
Off topic, do guys get key lag with AGB Keyboard? ..and did u install from market, or literally just the stock?
pileosnafu said:
I went there today, and saw that the Beta is still open. Just sign up to get the keyboard.
Also after 30 minutes of using the stock keyboard, and then 30 minutes of using the sywpe I went back to stock. The predection function is good. Almost as good as the real thing i had on the epic

do u keep vibrate on? Does that make the keyboard lag and/or miss keys (for you)?

Use keyboard manager from the market to use Swype in portrait and then switch to whatever other keyboard you want in landscape.

Hello, can any of you tell me the best keyboard for the OB? I am currently using GO keyboard and it is not the best. Thanks in advance!
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda premium
I like Perfect Keyboard because it allows to have a compact keyboard for portrait... a qwerty layout for portrait is IMHO too hard to use without mistakes.
In the other part Perfect Keyboard is rather bad for terminal and bash purpouses because is difficult to write symbols like _ or =
Regards!
the best: swiftkey
Well, I have used both and didn't like them... Any other solutions? The best so far is the GO keyboard that I have used so far, very smooth.

I used SliedIT, but only found a demo and it expired. Didn't want to pay for it.
I am looking for a specific feature in a swipe style keyboard, I need it to automatically recognize two languages. I sometimes write messages in my native language, and sometimes in English. Is this possible? SlideIT had a setting like "secondary dictionary" but it didn't work, or I don't know how to switch between (other then manually from the settings page).
I'm using HTC ime for passwords etc. and swype beta for allday writing
Once discovered that HTC IME has compact keyboard to and is easy to chage between them with left-right swipe... stuck on HTC IME!!!
Regards.
hectorrent said:
why do you change keyboard for passwords? You can write normally on Swype
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
because in some apps swype is trying to add passwords to the dictionary or replaces the passwords with words from dictionary ^^
The ones you have mentioned have not proven to be a wise choice for me because 1) they are too compact, 2)weak design and 3)do not recognize well other languages such as Portuguese or Spanish, which I normally use alongside with English. The downside of GO keyboard is that sometimes it is slow/annoying to type sometimes. Any other alternatives you might share?

I'm using GO Keyboard. In newest version it has swype, a lot of supported languages, themes and other stuff. I suggest you to try GO.
Acutally, I'm pretty satisfied with the LG stock keyboard. It even automatically changes to the local language when I'm abroad. I've additionally installed Smart keyboard but frankly haven't used it a lot.

Been using swiftkey for over a year and I love it but its laggy in ics. This isn't just a vivid thing either a Google search revealed nexus owners are having lag with it too. It ran fine on my captivate and fine on the vivid before the ics update. Tried several popular android keyboards and most have lag. Any suggestions?

I use swiftkey once in a while, the paid ver doesn't seem to lag for me, but I just don't like the small letters/fonts on the keys, especially on our qhd screens are even smallaer, there's no opinion to increase them from settings. I now, use the Thumb keyboard, very flexible and many themes.

You know you can get swype, yes? Sign up for the "beta" and you're good to go. No need for potentially malicious ports.

In ICS, pressing and holding the input area is not how you change keyboards. That is done using a notification setting that appears wherever you enter a text input field.

I tried thumb keyboard for a whole day eventually just switched back to the ics keyboard I found in the market. Simply just too slow for my tastes. I have to say there has to be something different about the ics framework because all keyboards that were fast with gingerbread are slow on ics. I think right now the problem with ics is just not enough phones have it for developers to care

The stock HTC one is very nice and fast but they left out one thing: auto space after prediction selection! Only android keyboard I've ever seen that doesnt auto space
